MAY THE FOURTH

I always venture up to this spot round this time of year but try to time it as close to low tide as possible to really emphasise the crystal clear waters and the extent of the sandy beach at Petit Bot.

BLUEBELL WOODS III

Another trip down to Bluebell Woods. I think I’ve seen enough for this year.

LAMB CHOPS

April 26, 2022 in Photography

26.04.22

I was told about some lambs up by the reservoir so I went to check them out. The lamb’s got a little E.T. look to it.

DUCKS

The Saumarez Park clan out in force again. I think I counted about 15 ducklings in total.

BLUEBELL WOODS II

April 22, 2022 in Photography

22.04.22

The time felt right to grab an ‘evening’ Bluebell Woods shot before they wilt away for another year.

Get down and check them out this weekend if you haven’t already.

BLUEBELLS

I tried so hard not to drag the kids down this year but in the end I couldn’t resist and they agreed after I let them take some silly selfies with my phone.

THE SOUTH

19.04.22

Kid free afternoon walking around the Jerbourg headland. This is one of my favourite spots, looking down to Petit Port, Moulin Huet and Saints harbour. I was going to go down but after a recent landslide it’s closed off again.

A welcome sight back to our shores, the first of many cruises scheduled for the season.

The mist was a little bit thick to get down low but managed an abstract of the loophole and the radar station in the background.

High above Saints Harbour, next to no wind and a familiar warm wind which made it almost feel like summer, but not quite there yet.

ARTY REMIX

April 12, 2022 in Photography

12.04.22

The name came from a classic London Grammar remix that I was just thinking about but also applies to the mash up of presets and tonal adjustments to get a deep blue ‘bluebell’ head just about to burst open!

A picture perfect springtime elevated St Peter Port scene. Great to see all the leaves appearing as well.

Another place with many fond childhood memories. It’s not quite the summer beach weather yet but it’s around the corner!

The sure signs of spring can only mean one thing (apart from the obvious)…Lambs!

LOOPHOLE

When you spend so much time doubting yourself and contemplating life, its easy to forget how a dramatic sunset can pick you back up. Good old L’Ancresse, a place that holds many happy memories!

DARK SKY

March 31, 2022 in Photography

31.03.22

From glorious sunshine for a whole week to a complete u-turn of icy cold arctic winds and wintry showers. This was a few minutes before the hail hit and it was painful. I’d forgotten how much it hurts being shot in the face with thousands of hail stones!

I also found loads of newborn lambs today so I’ll head back and grab some shots tomorrow.
